Awesome, I see NZ doesn't force you to convert them to RHD like Australia does.

 

[TAftw]

Impressive place.

That is not true. We are allowed to drive left hand drive cars here. For some it is easier to convert.

We can drive them LHD here...special club rego.

Also not 100% correct as you can fully register a left hand drive car.

Hi

I will get some photos of the inside of the barn soon.
It is fully lined, insulated and carpeted with industrial carpet.
The best thing I purchased is the two post car hoist. It paid for its self in one year.

All 3 cars are very different, but my favorate is the Superbird. The Superbird is simply outragous! I have had people fall to their knees as I drive past (true). The Superbird broke the NASCAR speed record of 200mph in 1970 and was later band as they were too fast.
The Cobra Jet however is quicker, not faster as there is a big difference.
Off the line, she is one VERY quick car! But past approx 100mph the Superbird is a lot faster.

My wife summed it up nicely as she was talking to a girlfriend.
"The Cobra Jet is like Brad Pitt, muscley, and VERY HOT!
the Cyclone is like George Clooney, sophisticated, strong and very good looking. The Superbird is like Arnold Schwarzenegger, very muscley, very strong, but ****** ugly"

My all time favorate car is the one I sold this year, 1970 Mustang Boss 429.
Attached is a video of this car, thanks to my wife. Watch it, as I think you may enjoy it

 

[GTVi]

I'm enjoying this thread. Your cars are great, and so is your wife...lol

 

[Dominico]

Absolutely fantastic! Great pictures. Love the orange as it reminds me of my first car.

 

[north]

Awesome garage and cars.

"I'll take care of this". Say thanks to your lovely wife for the tour.

 

[Daniel Dudley]

Great cars, and the type of building that more should aspire to.

 

[boss429kiwi]

Hi

I will have more inside photos soon.

 

[mad57]

Everything has 3 pedals and no Chevys.

I knew there was something wrong with this pic you gotta get a chevrolet in there.

 

[Pyetime]

Absolutely impressive collection and garage. It must have been painful to part with that beautiful Boss 9, that thing looked perfect.

 

[ejm1961Tbird]

Great video of the Boss 429! your wife did a great job restoring it. Just kidding. Too bad you had to sell that awesome 429. Perhaps you need to build a bigger garage. Your cars and garage are fantastic! Thanks for sharing! More please.

We can drive them LHD here...special club rego.

Here in New Zealand, you do not have to convert LHD cars to RHD, unless its newer than 40 year old. So all classics and Muscles car can stay LHD.

We can also import newer LHD cars and keep LHD if the car fits within 3 categorys.
1# Limited edition of 20000 or less
2# does not have a GVM more than 3500kg
3# must be a couple

So most new Mustangs, Shelbys, Camaros, Challangers can be imports and kept LHD etc
